to receive bolts C Nuts D work on the threaded ends of the bolts beyondthe holder and move against the jaw b. The inner surface of the jaw bhas an inset e corresponding to the projection a on the cuts, and theinner surface of the jaw b has a projection e corresponding to the nut aon the cuts. In practice the cuts are assembled together between theprojections or jaws I) b, so that the projections and insets ofcontiguous cuts lie within each other and the projection on the outercut rests within the inset on one jaw and the projection on the otherjaw rests within an inset on the outer surface of the cut at the otherend. With this construc tion not only do I avoid the present cumbersomeform of cuts with their long shanks, but I have cuts which are readilyinserted in the holder, lnesh together, may be readily locked in theholder, and readily removed. Moreover, the out has but littlesuperfluous metal, can be cheaply made, and may be discarded atnegligible cost.

Having now fully described myinvention, what I claim, and desire toprotect by Letters Patent, is

A bush-holder comprising a body, projecting jaws, the body portion atone projecting jaw being cut longitudinally, forming a movable jaw, abolt passing through said movable jaw and into the body portion.

In testimony of which invention I have hereunto set my hand, atPhiladelphia, on this 7th day of September, 1904.

Be it known that I, WILBER I-I. VAN SIOKEL,

a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, county ofPhiladelphia, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and usefulImprovement in Bush-Tools, of which the following is a full, clear, andexact j description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings,which form a part of this specification.

My invention relates to certain improvements in bush-tools whereby thecuts may 1 be readily secured and removed from the holder and also toprovide cuts having substantially no shanks and consisting practicallyof the cutting-surface only and which cuts are so constructed as toenable them to be readily inserted, sleeved, and locked in the holder.

I will first describe the embodiment of my invention illustrated in theaccompanying drawings and then point out the invention in the claim.

In the drawings, tion of my invention. vation.

The cuts comprise the cutting edge or sur body portion A. In thebodyportion, on one edge, is the projection a and on the opposite edge acorresponding inset a The holder comprises the shank B, the body portionB having a cut-away portion at its outer end, forming the projectingjaws b b at opposite sides. The body has also the longitudinal cut bcausing the jaw to have a spring or yielding action. There are alsoorifices C extending through the portion carrying the jaw 11 and intothe main body portion B.
